Usually, you need to find at least a middle initial from another source, though, before you can assume that. It's also possible that John & Rachel divorced before that, and Malinda was another person. You posted quite a bit of the information from your ggrandfather John HIGLE's death certificate, but you didn't say when and where he was born and when he died. How old were Rachel & George CAMPBELL in 1880? Does that census agree that she was born in Ohio? You said Rachel was with John HIGLE and his family in 1900. What did that census say about them? The more details you post, the more likely that somebody can help you.
